| Summary, etc. |
The Philippines is the sixth largest exporter of bamboo globally, with kawayan-tinik (Bambusa<br/>blumeana) being one of the most significant bamboo species found locally. Cement, a critical and<br/>costly building material, is a major contributor to CO2 emissions in the construction industry.<br/><br/>Bamboo leaf ash (BLA), derived from bamboo leaves often regarded as waste, presents an eco-<br/>friendly and cost-effective alternative to partially replace cement in concrete production. This<br/><br/>study evaluates the potential of calcined BLA as a sustainable substitute for Ordinary Portland<br/>Cement (OPC) by examining its performance in cementitious mixtures. Concrete samples were<br/>prepared with varying BLA substitution levels (0%, 3%, 5%, 7%, 10%, and 15%) at a fixed<br/>water-to-cement ratio of 0.55. Results show that a 7% BLA substitution achieved a compressive<br/>strength of 22.18 MPa on the 28th day, meeting the target mean strength for concrete. The<br/>findings demonstrate that incorporating 7% BLA can reduce material costs and environmental<br/>impact while utilizing bamboo waste effectively. The study highlights the vast potential of<br/>bamboo resources in the Philippines, where bamboo forests cover approximately 39,000 to<br/>53,000 hectares. It underscores the environmental and economic advantages of adopting BLA in<br/>the construction industry. Recommendations for future research include exploring alternative<br/>calcination processes, investigating reinforcement options, and testing BLA from different<br/>bamboo species. These steps aim to optimize BLA utilization and further establish its role as a<br/>sustainable material in concrete production. |
